Everything works flawlessly!
i was skeptical since reviews have not been great on this. I've had it for 3 months and it has worked flawlessly. Will update if anything breaks.
Pros:
All 8 functions tested and work great
I can convert albums/cassette/CD to digital through USB and play in my car, on my PC, or anywhere.
AM and FM work perfectly with small single wire antenna. None of my other radio units have worked in this location - especially AM
Looks amazing - I got the white model
Multiple options for Auxiliary inputs (though I have not tried these)
External headphone output could also be used for small speakers
Easy to pair with my iPhone in < 60 sec via Bluetooth and played songs stored on my phone instantly.
Remote control does just about everything with mute button for answering phone calls, etc
Can save a fortune converting old media to digital without expensive outsourcing
Phonograph comes with 3 extra needles if needed (photo lower right)
Cons:
Sound through speakers is acceptable, but not great - might try external options, but I'm happy with sound right now
Due to it's nostalgic design the power on/off and tuning/preset radio options must be done by hand rather than on remote
Bottom line, this was one of my best purchases on Amazon. Pros completely outweigh the Cons and I'm using it nearly every day
